Food for thought!

One of the biggest misconceptions about the cattle industry is that if cattle are "grain-finished" they don't get to eat grass! Even grain-finished cattle spend the first part (6-12 months) of their lives exclusively on grass pasture. From there, they are transitioned onto a diet of grass, roughage and grain in a feedlot (6-8 months), before finally being finished on grain in a finishing yard during the "fattening" stage of their lives (4-6 months). Keep in mind also that all of the grain fed to cattle (corn, sorghum, etc.) is part of the "grass" family of crops! This is why the term "grass fed" means nothing.....because all cattle are "grass fed." Make sure to look for the label "grass-finished" if you want beef raised exclusively on grass.
